Logitech Bluetooth Audio Adapter for Bluetooth Streaming

Logitech BT adapter is applied to older powered speakers with no builtin bluetooth capability. No issues on bluetooth connectivity with iphone 13 on finding the BT adapter. This adapter works great with the powered speakers-audio is a good as wired connection. This adapter has allowed older speakers to work once again and to be placed anywhere within bluetooth range. Range is very good-depending on obstructions-noted. No issues with any of Logitech accessories with a computer--all work very well for their function.

Originally purchased in 2017 so this review is extremely overdue. Last house had a huge deck and I had some outdoor speakers and an aging audio receiver sitting around. I made a weatherproof box for the receiver, hooked up the speakers but didn't have a way to get audio to it except to use RCA cables and plug directly into a phone/iPad/iPod, etc. Bought this, connected it via RCA to the receiver and started pairing devices. The first winter I was a good homeowner and put my toys away. After that I stopped taking care of things and left the deck box out year-round. Essentially, this Bluetooth adapter has been sitting outside in a weatherproof deck box since 2018. Fast forward seven (7) years and I don't have a need for it outside anymore but I do have a need indoors. It for sure hasn't been used since 2023. Today I connected it to my computer speakers, plugged it in and heard the familiar power noise. Connected my phone, which has never been used with it, and it works just as good as it always has. Long story, I've had this thing for about eight (8) years, had zero issues, and it still works amazing. It isn't a complicated device. RCA cords or a 3.5mm cable out to your speakers/receiver, push the button on top, and connect your Bluetooth device. You know how the rest works after that. I can't speak on durability if it were to be dropped or get wet but I can say that I haven't been disappointed with it in all the time I've owned it. Sound quality is good. Bluetooth has a good range on it.

The unit was easy to set up. Following the enclosed instructions, I simply plugged it in to a power outlet, attached it to the 3.5 mm auxiliary port of my Bose Wave Radio, and identified and paired it immediately with my Kindle HDX. To test out the quality and range of the Bluetooth signal, I began listening to an Audible audio book, then switched to Prime Music. Later, I listened to some of my favorite radio shows on Tune-In. No drop-outs. No hiss. No static. Everything was clear and perfect. I highly recommend this product. In addition to trying the Logitech Bluetooth Audio Adapter with my Bose radio, I also plugged the Logitech into a set of powered Yamaha speakers plus sub-woofer (Model YST-MS50, manufactured in 1998) that I had stored in the basement and had not used for about 10 years. As stated on the box, the Logitech will work directly with powered speakers as long as the speakers have a 3.5 mm auxiliary input. No need to hook them up to a PC or tuner. Imagine my amazement when beautiful, full sound from some music on my Kindle passed through the Logitech Bluetooth and emerged from these old Yamaha speakers. Believe me, I had given up on these speakers! I also discovered the Logitech Bluetooth Audio Adapter has good, solid range-- definitely in excess of 30 feet. To see about the signal strength, I tested the Bluetooth Adapter in an old Queen Anne style house, built around 1910, with thick plaster and lathe walls, leaded glass windows, and thick doors that inhibit Bluetooth signals. The signal from other Bluetooth devices that I own (from Belkin and Monoprice, which are otherwise good units) barely reaches 18 feet from the third floor to the second in this house. With the Logitech Bluetooth Adapter, no signal problem! As a test, I set up my Kindle HDX on my desk on the third floor, playing an Audible Book and broadcasting through Bluetooth. I got a clear Bluetooth signal through my Bose radio, downstairs at 32 feet away. I want to emphasize that it was not "line of sight." The radio was down the stairs, through the second floor hallway, and all the way through two closed doors to the front of the house and into another room!

I am on unit number 2. As soon as it arrived I hooked it up, it was easy and only took a few minutes to install. I paired it with my laptop and was able to play all of the mp3's over my big home stereo and it sounded great for all of 12 minutes then the unit ceased to function which required me to send it back to Amazon for another replacement. Amazon had sent a replacement within a couple of days and upon receipt of the new one I hooked it up immediately. So for four days whenever I was away from home I just set it on a loop and the stereo played and the unit worked without failure. I suppose there is about forty hours on the new one but the failure of the first one is still fresh in my mind. This unit is is multiple branded and is sold under more than the Logitech name. I just hope it lasts as I use it a lot listening to the 80's and 90's headbanging bands. If it fails I will replace it with another brand hoping my luck will change. Update: 9-11-2016: I had to give this Bluetooth adapter another star. Since I have gotten this Logitech Bluetooth adapter I have put a real beating on it. It has been used daily for extended periods of time. When used in conjunction with the Actiontec Screen Beam Mini2 projected to the 50" plasma TV and the big home stereo it turns into a concert. It is surely amazing when they are working together, just sitting back and enjoying the show. WOW, Having a computer with Bluetooth and WIDI is sure a convenience, no wires and having to move it just to connect to the TV or bigger monitor like the old one.

Arrived on time. Present for hubby he likes it a lot.

En lo personal es un muy buen producto. A primera impresión se ve bastante bien, buena calidad, pequeño. - Cumple perfectamente su funcionamiento con lo del bluetooth. - Gran calidad de audio, claro no es lo mismo que conectar tu dispositivo directamente con cable, pero supero mis expectativas. - Tiene buen alcance, claro excepto cuando cruzas algún muro el alcance disminuye pero aun así suena bastante bien. - Emparejar cualquier dispositivo con el adaptador es super fácil y no tienes que estar conectando cada vez que lo prendes, a menos que uses varias aparatos con bluetooth si lo tendrás que conectar cada vez que lo usas. EN GENERAL ES UN PRODUCTO BASTANTE BUENO Y SOBRE TODO EL PRECIO CONVIENE BASTANTE!!!

This works perfectly for me. Almost to good. Distance -- it is blue tooth and I think that I've had other devices that have a longer range, but honestly i think it hits the rated distance fine. Sound quality -- it sounds fine and is very stable. That said, we don't use this to rock the house, but believe I'm also fairly discriminating, so if it sounded bad, I would notice it. East of use -- super easy to connect, just press the button. Stability -- I purchased this because Air Play would loose the signal regularly. I don't think this is so much Air Play's fault as I've got lots of wireless networks around me. But either way, Air Play was a bit of a pain Connection -- this is the only "down" side. When the device is on, my phone always automatically connects. On one hand, this is perfect when I'm listening to music. But when I'm not, it connects anyway and all my phone noises then go through the stereo. So I have to unplug and plug in to turn it off (I don't want to turn off BT on my phone) I have had this for quite some before writing the review.

This is the best quality bluetooth adapter available in the market by Logitech. I used his to connect my old Altech lancing speakers to play music wirelessly.connects to any bluetooth device upto a distance of 30 mts. Pros 1 . Pairs seamlessly 2 . The bluetooth range is very good. Cons . None
